TD 104

Question 1

What are the overflight of wire hazard requirements while operating in all areas in Fort Rucker?

Answer 1

Aircraft operating within 100m of wires will be no lower than 50’ (25’ NOE) above the wires. Wires should be crossed at or near the poles

Question 2

What are the night or NVG considerations for TASK 1184 Respond to IIMC?

Answer 2

1. With NVGs it may be possible to see through thin obscuration (fog/drizzle) with little to no degradation
2. If IMC is entered with landing/searchlight on, spatial disorientation may occur
3. NVG may be removed/flipped up once stable flight is established. It may be beneficial for the P not to remove the NVG to see the landing environment through thin obscuration

Question 3

When conducting Autorotation the lack of visual references at night reduces the aviators ability to estimate airspeed and altitude. Use the landing/searchlight as appropriate. To compensate for the lack of visual references, the aviator will attain a steady-state autorotation before ____.

Answer 3

reaching 300’ AGL

Question 4

What are the standards for TASK 1425 Employ ANVIS?

Answer 4

1. Conduct operators check IAW TM q1-5855-313-10 for the ANVIS
2. Properly mount the ANVIS on the flight helmet
3. Adjust the ANVIS to obtain the Optimal Sight Adjustment Point (OSAP)

Question 5

What are the standards associated with TASK 1426 React to ANVIS failure?

1.
2.
3.
4.

While conducting NOE or contour flight ____________

Answer 5

1. Announce ANVIS failure by workstation
2. Transfer the controls if applicable
3. Troubleshoot ANVIS failure
4. Announce result of troubleshooting

the P* will begin a climb at a rate that will ensure obstacles clearance.

Question 6

Reduced ambient light levels (while flying NVG) can be detected by recognising the following indications:

Answer 6

-loss of celestial/ground lights
-reduced ambient light levels
-reduced visual acuity
-increased halo effect
-scintillation

Question 7

Motion parallax is often considered the most important depth perception cue. Motion parallax refers to the apparent relative motion of ________

Answer 7

stationary objects as viewed by an observer moving across the landscape.

Question 8

The low battery indicator is a red LED at the bottom of the mount that comes on and blinks when the active battery voltage drops below acceptable level, indicating ____

Answer 8

30min of operation remaining
